I'm curious to see some pictures of those mining rigs. Share your pictures of your rig and then details of build and mhash/sec. Let's get a frame of reference up here with some visuals. I will use this first post as a place holder and take a picture of my own rig later today.
I am fortunate enough to have a shop with space for me to setup my mining rigs. So far I've just gone with the open "bench" setup to save on costs and to make cooling easy.
In the photo you can see the bench with three rigs (a mix of 5870, 5970 and one older 5840) on the floor is the Bitcoin solo server running in -server mode, which also has 2 5870's. There are a couple of other machines in my office with 5870's elsewhere. I am at 3.8G/hash and adding about 1/g/hash per week buying up cheap used cards via craigslist.
I am working on building a good Ubuntu Live ATI ISO file today in an attempt to eliminate all of the hard drives by using USB thumb drives, that'll save on electricity as well as hardware costs going forward.
I really want to like you, have such mining tools,
but only a dream for me to be like you
maybe one day,
this thread is good to be an inspiration
